I got back into mod mode this week, and added some more accessories. I bought a set of 2008 Escalade 22" inch factories two days ago. Well today a customer came into our shop and was wanting to sell a set of 26" inch KMC dimes off his 2007 ESV. He bought the wheels from us a little less than a month ago for 5500. He was asking $3,000 for them. I offered him $2200. He accepted my offer, so now I have two sets of the same exact 26" inch rims and tires. Now I have two (2) other sets of rims and tires that I need to sell asap. If you remember 2 weeks ago, I bought a set of NEW 2008 Escalade chrome rims, and I got a new set of snow tires for them (Nitto Dune Grapplers). I also am selling the 22" Inch 2008 Escalade Factories.

Today I installed my rear headrest screens. These screens are only visible to people driving or walking behind my truck. I also began to build the frame for my custom rear wall. I have to pull it apart because I bought a new Kicker Box with two new Kicker L7's. I have a Kicker box in there now with one 10" L7 in there that I will have to sell too. I put a refridgerator in the wall, a Cd Changer, a DVD Changer, and Im gonna put one 7" inch monitor in the wall also. Now when you see the pic of the wall under construction you can see everything where it will be placed. o finish the wall I have to build the face that will be wrapped in 2 tone leather that will match the amp rack below under the rear seats. Its gonna turn out amazing. I also put down the sub floor behind the wall in the bed area for the hard wood floor that will be laid down sometime this week. I have the wood already. Im just waiting to finish the wall so I know how deep it will go back toward the rear of the bed. Im going to poly-Urithane the wood floor heavily, to give it a NBA Basketball Court looking floor, and to add extra protection against scratches. Lastly I have a set of PINK HID Zenon Bulbs that Ill put in to replace the factory HID's. I put a set in my Lexus tonight, and they look pretty cool. Ill put some pics under this post. Check out the pics below. Let me know what you think so far.

What would shipping be to Spokane, WA 99202?

What condition are the rims in? And tires?

Both the tires and rims are great. Lots of tread left. My zip is 21009. Id have to see how much each rim weighs to get a shipping price. I am guessing in the 200 range. I woud probably sell the wheels for 1525 shipped.

I thought of a crazy idea last night that Im going to put into action. Let me know what you think of this. There is a guy on ebay that is selling service manuals for the 02-06 Escalades on DVD Discs with complete fix/repair info like they use at the dealer for repairs (kinda like chiltons. You can go thru the menu and skip chapters by pushing the forward and back buttons on the remote. So here is the conclusion of my idea. Im gonna add a dvd player in my wall that will only have the Escalade manual DVD in it. Then I will make a nice fiberglass mount/bezel with a 7" tv/monitor under the hood so whenever my mechanic works on my truck he can go thru the service dvd right there under the hood. He can skip thru chapters/pages by using the remote that will control the dvd palyer via a remote eye that will be mounted in the bezel that holds the monitor. Is this crazy or what???

I took out the sub box I had with the 10" Kicker and replaced it with another Kicker box that has (2) 12" Kicker L7's in there. Wow what a big difference!
I put my old kicker box turned around behind it and now Im trying to decide whether to sell it or make a add on to the 12" kicker box with the 10" Kicker facing the tailgate. I would have to get another amp with that set-up. I also would lose more bed space doing that. With that said Im leaning more towards selling the 10" sub with the box.

Here is the back side still under construction. The MDF board laid down is the sub-floor. Once its finished you won't see anything back there. Im gonna lay the wood floor, make walls on each side wrapped in black leather with a tv monitor on each side up towards the bed, and add alot of neon lighting for a nice light show inside the bed.

The wood floor is getting a heavy topping of poly-urathane for a high gloss shine. Im going for an NBA Basketball court look. Dead in the center of the wood floor I will add a Cadillac Logo just like a home basketball team would have their team logo at center court. Its gonna look so good that I probably wont put anything back there rendering the bed as useless :-(

Another PINK HID shot for those wondering about the visibility:
